It may only be July, a full six months before Signing Day, but for Jackson (Ga.) three-star defensive end Neiron Ball, time is running out.

The 6-foot-4, 210-pounder wants to have his college decision made before his senior season starts in September.

Ball, rated by Rivals.com as the No. 23 weakside end in the country, is getting closer to knowing what college that will be. After a visit to Auburn Saturday, Ball said he's narrowed his list down to three.

"Auburn, Georgia and Florida are my top three schools," said Ball, who also added that was in no particular order. "I'm going to try and make my decision early."
